Dil-LDL, Cell Labeling Reagent and DiO-LDL Cell Labeling Reagent

Dil-LDL, Low Density Lipoprotein, labeled with 1,1′-dioctadecyl-3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-indocarbocyanine perchlorate is used to visualize LDL binding sites in cultured cells or to screen for cell mutants defective in the
expression of  LDL receptors.  It may also be useful in evaluating receptor levels by fluorescent activated cell sorting, and examining tissue levels of receptor in vivo.  Dil-LDL is an excellent marker of cellular endocytosis.
A complete protocol is included with each shipment.
